cylinder before machine work (hone)
Mark made on intermediate shaft journal. I did NOT make this mark. Can't figure why someone would do this.
images of marks on cylinder bore after hot tank and deglaze
I checked all journals after machine shop work
#5 main bearing
#1 main
end play shims at #3 bearing
image of later style 2.0 (AEG??) end play shim position
#3 main bearing Plastigauge
a rod journal
Rod journal near spec for "new" (0.01 - 0.06 mm)
End play with new bearings etc. very gentle levering on screwdriver
A VW PDF of AEG and ABA engine rebuilding refers to "engine front" regarding rod orientation.
I wasn't clear if they meant "front" as it is mounted in a Mk3 or "front" meant the pulley end of engine. Seems it's the latter. This is for a VW Fox engine but I doubt VW changed that aspect since then.
